Is it possible to setup shared folders between virtual users on the

yes it is - here's the starting point within the documentation:

My attempts thus far seem without results.
What should I expect to see, if anything, in each account for a
successful "share"? Sadly, I see no apparent change in the displayed
folder structure using Thunderbird (most recent AFAICT).
I created and can see, in the folder structure of "user a" a symlink to
"user b", but see no apparent difference in either account, after exit
and restart of Thunderbird.
Restart of dovecot was also done.
To be a bit more explicit (hopefully) There is a symlink in
"/home/vmail/usera/Maildir/.Cabinet.folder_name" to
"/home/vmail/userb/Maildir/.Cabinet.name_2_share_as", both owned by
vmail:vmail, do at first thought, I should not have to fiddle with file
system rights. Wrong?

I am only just starting to use Dovecot as well as Thunderbird as
replacements for a legacy system, so am still at the "beginner" stage
with both, so my queries may seem inane to some.
Bearing that in mind, it seems "shared folders" may not be possible in
the sense/context I am familiar with, at least the way I have been
attempting it.
Found the Thunderbird client has a "sharing" option for folders yet
states "This server does not support shared folders"
So, is "folder sharing" something that has actually been done with
Dovecot/Thunderbird? If so, suggestions on where I may have gone wrong?
